We have published more than 1,800 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, some 300 of them in the London area. The maps are highly detailed. They are taken from the OS 1:2,500 (or 25 inch) maps and reduced to about 15 inches to the mile. They show streets with individual houses, tram tracks, railway tracks and even signals, factories, wharves and such details as fountains and water troughs. They will provide hours of fascination for historians and genealogists. The maps are neatly folded and each includes a specially written introduction to the area. Maps can be purchased on our On-line Mapshop where further information about titles is given. For other information and Prices, see Index Page.
Here are the details of maps for Bermondsey:
We have published three versions of this map, showing how the area developed across the years. The maps each cover the same area, stretching from London Bridge eastward to Southwark Park and southward to New Kent Road and Spa Road. Major features include London Bridge station, Tower Bridge, St Saviour's Dock, Tooley Street, Jamaica Road, Southwark Cathedral, Borough Market, St James's church, Spa Road station, numerous small works, and wharves beside the Thames. The map also includes a small but interesting section north of the Thames, where features include part of the Tower, most of St Katharine's Docks, London Wewstern Dock, Wapping Basin, Wapping High Streeet. The 1914 map includes a brief introduction to the OS by Richard Oliver, plus an OS Index map to the 1912-14 London series.
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with London Sheets 63 Whitechapel to the north, 76 Waterloo to the west, 77 Rotherhithe to the east, 90 Old Kent Road to the south.
